After breakfast at the lake front this morning we travelled to Mount Cook half expecting it to be exactly the same problems getting accommodation but at least this time we would be during the day and could make a decision to move on to a major town. The drive to Mount Cook is breathtaking, it’s past Lake Pukaki with snow peaked mountains on each side of the road. When you reach the Mount Cook village you literally just look up all around you and you are surrounded by these beautiful and absolutely enormous mountains. We easy got a room here and this is the view from our window! Nice eh!
Had a nice leisurely day walking today. We went to see the Tasman Glacier and took a very old walk to a Mount Cook viewing point. In NZ they create footpaths for hiking which they call tramping. We then went out for tea at the Old Mountaineers for a really good and really big roast dinner. Since I had a lamb dinner pizza last night I chose chicken this evening. It's all good.
